(20) Thus far we have offered the considerations appropriate
to those asking for demonstration: those whose need is conviction
by evidence of the more material order are best met from the
abundant records relevant to the subject: there are also the

the honouring of the dead as still sentient, a practice common to
all mankind: and again, not a few souls, once among men, have
continued to serve them after quitting the body and by
revelations, practically helpful, make clear, as well, that the
other souls, too, have not ceased to be.
